Adobe Content Viewer: Vertical Overview-Button gone

Hi
Does anybody know why in the upper navigation field (top right) the overview button disappeared in the content viewer? Since some days it is only possible to see a horizontal overview of the chapters. Or does that have to do something with the folio? (We didn't change anything within InDesign)
Many thanks for your help. Best, Robin

This is part of the UI changes we made in release 25. Instead of tapping that button just drag the horizontal scrollbar along the bottom of the screen. That will take you into browse mode.

Linking to Adobe Content Viewer

I cannot get the Adobe Content Viewer to authorize linking of my IPad to my IM
ac. Adobe Help tried to but the problem remains. Do others have this problem?

Make sure you're signed into the iPad with the same login info you used to sign into the Folio Builder.

Updates to Adobe Content Viewer

Can anyone explain the Folio update process to me?
I can't seem to get updated Folios from InDesign to appear on my viewer? I've updated within the folio builder tab but it's not kicking them out to my iPad.
I also have a blue thunderbolt banner in the upper left hand corner. What should I know about that?
What does it mean to archive? I've archive it several times trying to get my updates pushed out.
Any advice on this whole process would be very helpful. I must be doing something wrong?
Thanks,
Cam

Button Function Failure on Adobe Content Viewer

Why do the button functions work well the first time I view them on my iPad's Adobe Content Viewer but do not function properly in subsequent viewings?
For example, the next page buttons work flawlessly during the first viewing on the iPad. But from the second time they functions awkwardly. The Next page button on Page 1 stops functioning. The one on Page 2 takes me back to Page 1.

Same issue-- and it's been a few weeks now. As far as I can tell it is a waiting issue

Use the iPad Viewer to preview content
The Adobe Content Viewer for the iPad is a generic version of the viewer used for testing the digital content you create on the iPad. The iPad viewer is updated whenever the Folio Producer tools are updated.
Note: However, when a new set of tools is released, folios you create with those tools may not work properly until Apple approves the new viewer version. If you try to open the folio, a “Please update your app” message appears. If you have a Professional or Enterprise account, you can create a custom version of the Adobe Content Viewer. See
“Create a custom Adobe Content Viewer for iPad” on page
98. Otherwise, hold off on updating the tools or use the Desktop Viewer until Apple approves the updated viewer.

Adobe Content Viewer + Article creation

Hello,
I've created a folio in Indesign CS5.5 but I can't create an article when I click the "New" button. The following error message displays "An error has occurred while updating article layouts. The InDesign file for the layout cannot be found. Please relink the article to desired source files".
All I've created so far is a scrolling text box which I can't preview because the Adobe Content Viewer fails to launch (dual orientation document).
I've done a clean install of Indesign CS5.5 and installed the latest Folio Producer and Builder Tools (CS5.5) posted on the Adobe DPS website.
Has anyone come across this problem recently and if so what was your solution.
Thank you.
Richard

To negilaxman,
This message has occurred for myself and asks to relink the source files, this worked before a new update of folio tools V 8.0.8.22 (CS6).
1. How can you relink these files when the server cannot find the folio on you local drive but it's available in the cloud.
2. Also Is there a easier way to duplicate all folio content ie :
All Vertically only
All Horizontal only
Also horizontal and vertical documents in the cloud need a way to re-link back towards the local drive or a cloud folio duplicate without any need to re-upload all your previous content.
Any users having the same problems with small or larger folios after this new update.
Regards
Vividi

Hyperlinks not working in Adobe Content Viewer?

Hey
I'm trying to link a photo to another page in InDesign. It doesn't really matter how I do it, it's mainly important that it works .
So far I have managed to create a working hyperlink from a photo to a page, and it works on my computer. But as soon as I test it out in Adobe Content Viewer, nothing happens when I press the photo.
Is this possible to do?
Thanks!

Here is the link to the navto help documentation as well as a screen shot on how to set it up.
Digital Publishing Suite Help | Hyperlink and button overlays
navto://ArticleName#page is the format. ArticleName#0 and ArticleName# will both bring you to the first page of the article.

Adobe Content Viewer Application not Loading in China

I am having a problem viewing an application I uploaded to an Adobe Content Viewer account. I can see the application just fine in my dashboard after I log in, but when my contact in China logs in using the same username and password, the application does not appear in her dashboard. Do you know how to resolve this? Is there a firewall that is preventing users in China from seeing the application I uploaded?
Thanks,
Kate

Yes, if Adobe's folios could be downloaded in China, it means Chinese Internet sencorship is gone. Imagine how many magazines are there for Chinese people to download that the government won't be happy to see if Adobe's folios is available to download. Sad for Chinese...

Need to download folios repeatedly in Adobe Content Viewer

Hi:
We are using Adobe Content Viewer (ACV) for a digital education project. The ACV app is used in iPad´s and when are turned off, we need to download again all the folios previously downloaded to the ACV app.
Someone who has the same problem, how to fix it?.
Thanks,
Oscar

I am using iPad 2 with iOS 7.0.4. and latest ACV, more than 10 gb free.
1. Basically, I download a folio on my iPad device, I can open it and everything is just fine. When I click "remove issues from library" I see both folios, one occupies 28 mb, the other one 48 mb. One is made for viewer version 20 the other for 26.
2. Then, I shut down the device completely and turn it back on after few seconds.
3. I launch ACV, both of those folios appear just fine, until I click on them.
4. Just as I click on a folio, the background appears just light gray, without any content. If I tap on the screen, I don't even get top menu, where I can return to library. So I have to force quit ACV.
5. When I launch ACV again, both folios have the cloud icon next to them, and I need to download them in order to view them, HOWEVER, when I click "remove issues from library" button, I see that both folios are still there with the same mb size.
So, it looks like they are still on the device, but for some reasons I need to re-download them again.
Unfortunately I don't have any other iPads to test these folios.
Just to remind, this happens only to 2 out of many folios, both were made in summer last year, they are not published and are only used on the current device as presentations.
Regarding updates, to be honest, I don't remember if I had this prior to last iOS update, but I might not have noticed that.
Usually, if I see there is an update, I just update it.
Is there anything you would recommend to try?
I have not yet tried to remove ACV from the device and re-install. Or unshare that folio and share it again.

How can I view content that I've archived on the iPad Adobe Content Viewer?

Sorry, I'm new to the DPS process. I tapped "Archive" in the Adobe Content Viewer thinking that I would be able to retrieve it from the archive. I haven't been able to find that capability yet! I've tried renaming the document in InDesign and updating, thinking the project would appear in the content viewer. Again, no dice. I even deleted the content viewer from the iPad and reinstalled. Logged out, logged in. No dice. I cannot seem to have any luck seeing my project again. It was displaying just fine earlier today. Damn curiosity! Why did I tap on the archive button? Any help would be much appreciated!
Cheers,
Dave

I guess what I was asking is when you tap Archive in the Adobe Content Viewer on the iPad there is a pop-up that says "Are you sure you want to Archive?" and "This item will be removed from your device. You may download it again at anytime for free." But there is no option to do this within the iPad app! At least none that I can see.
I ended up creating a new folio with the same articles. It works now, but the archive function is not intuitive! It should work the same as when you archive magazines in the Newstand app. I mean, that's how people expect it to work. I guess in Adobe speak archive = delete!
Anyway, if you archive something it removes it from the app and you will not see a download button.
Thanks!
Dave

How can I delete testing apps off of my Adobe content viewer?

I have been playing around, and sending different things to the cloud and viewing it on the adobe content viewer (not being published or shared with anyone). I delete them from my folio builder and from the dashboard in folio producer and they are not deleted from my app. I just want them gone. They are not relevant anymore.

Two things to check: (1) did you remove the folios using the same Adobe ID in the Folio Builder that you're using in the Adobe Content Viewer? and (2) did you create the files using the old prerelease Content Bundler?

HTMLResources, does this work in the adobe content viewer on the iPad

HTMLResources, does this work in the adobe content viewer. I have created my HTMLResources folder with the pdf and zipped it. It how ever does not download anything when I press the button in the content viewer.

Hi Bob, I just did my test again. What I didn't do in the first place was zip the contents, not the folder. It worked, thank you very much. My next question is can these pdfs be saved into ibooks? Can we download content such as forms that can be filled in and then eamiled back via the ipad mail program?

Why isn't pinch & zoom working in articles viewed on Adobe Content Viewer

I'm not sure why I'm not able to get the pinch & zoom feature to work when viewing articles on iPad Adobe Content Viewer? I've saved my DPS articles as PDF, but it's not working. I'm on a first generation iPad with ioS 4.3.3, with Adobe Content Viewer version 2.9. I've tried saving the article in a variety of versions from v20 to v23, but no luck. I appreciate your help. Thank you.

Hello Neil,
I was following your posts. I am making a folio with the article type set to PDF.
Still the PDF only can zoom in the vertical version and not in the horizontal version. Also the PDF is with zooming not sharp!
What do I have to do to make everything work well!

Folio not opening in adobe content viewer

About a year ago, I created a magazine with Digital Publishing Suite for a college course and uploaded it to my ipad in Adobe Content Viewer. It was from a school computer and version of Indesign so I don't think I'd be able to reload the file onto the content viewer app if I needed to. When I open the content viewer, I see the cover of my magazine alongside an Adobe file that says "Release". This Adobe file is newly there, and so is a blue plug icon on the top corner of my magazine. When I click my magazine, the little info "i" turns into a spinning symbol, as if it were loading. However, nothing loads and nothing happens. I left it for hours and nothing happened. When I click to open the Adobe release file, it opens to a light grey screen with no content, buttons, or anything. There is nothing I can click on or do so it forces me to exit and quit the app.
Can someone please help me in figuring out what is causing it to not open? I'm frustrated at this point and am nervous to delete and redownload the app in case my file is lost. Like I said, not sure if it would still be there or if I could get it back again. (I also am signed into the app with my Adobe ID, if that helps)
Thanks!

Unfortunately you need to uninstall and reinstall the Adobe Content Viewer app, and doing so will result in the loss of the folio you see because you added it to the device using Preview on Device. Since you did this a year ago there have been several iOS changes that required updates to the application. There's really no way to resolve this without uninstalling, reinstalling, and then putting the content onto your device again.

Limitations/issues Adobe Content Viewer (Adobe Viewer) on Ipad 1 (not tested on 2)

There a a few problems/limitations I'm running into with the Adobe Content Viewer for Ipad 1 (not tested on 2), like:
Autoplaying more than 1 multiple-state is impossible. Only the object in the highest place in the layers is visible (like having pulsing navigation arrows and a fade in text) -works perfectly in de windows Adobe Content Viewer with Indesign 5.5
Autoplay of an multistate object with 'stop at last frame' does not work. It just fades the entire multistate object out, instead of holding. -works perfectly in de windows Adobe Content Viewer with Indesign 5.5.
Cropping Images (changing the objectbox) in indesign, becomes skewed (or squashed) like the image just gets pushed in the new objectbox size.
Buttons with a click image/appearence become invisible in a multistate object. -works perfectly in de windows Adobe Content Viewer with Indesign 5.5.
Some ideas for change
Not allowing an Overlay (which is larger than the page itself) on a page depth of 1, on top of a page with depth 0. Seeing content of the page below the currentpage seems quite unuseful.
Allow multistate objects to autoplay within another multistate object (thus allowing like a: menu catagorie wich can call an autoplaying slideshow)
Zooming in on an image without first having to tap on it to enable zooming.
Updating content button.
Hitting the update button in Indesign cs5.5 (windows) doesn't update all changed content.
Hitting download update in de Adobe Content Viewer (Ipad 1) doesn't change all changed content. Archive and redownload nessesary.
We would love to see the top issues working.
